Mother Nature and I aren’t on speaking terms lately. Two days of intense rain and floods (500-year floods, by the way) were followed by nearly a week of fry-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk, blast-furnace-car-interior, take-your-fish-for-a-walk mugginess.

If I can’t BE cool, I can think cool … with the help of Instant Snow. Just add water to this polymer powder and it expands nearly 100 times its size into white flaky non-toxic “faux snow.” An 8-ounce jar will make nearly two gallons of snow, enough for sculpting plenty of snowdrifts.
